In “The Hundred-Foot Journey,” Hassan Kadam (Manish Dayal)
is a culinary ingénue with the gastronomic equivalent of perfect pitch.
Displaced from their native India, the Kadam family, led by Papa (Om Puri),
settles in the quaint village of Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val in the south of
France. Filled with charm, it is both picturesque and elegant – the ideal place
to settle down and open an Indian restaurant, Maison Mumbai. That is, until the
chilly chef proprietress of Le Saule Pleureur, a Michelin-starred, classical
French restaurant run by Madame Mallory (Academy Award®-winner Helen Mirren)
gets wind of it.
Her icy protests against the new Indian restaurant a hundred
feet from her own escalate into a heated battle between the two establishments
until Hassan’s passion for French haute cuisine — and for Madame Mallory’s
enchanting sous chef, Marguerite (Charlotte Le Bon) — combine with his
mysteriously-delicious talent to weave magic between their two cultures and
imbue Saint-Antonin with the flavors of life that even Madame Mallory cannot
ignore. At first Madame Mallory's culinary rival, she eventually recognizes
Hassan's gift as a chef and takes him under her wing.

The avocado and chickpea salad sounds like something I would love to try. Love the clip! Looks like a great movie.
The Avacado salad is the recipe that I would love to try. It looks delicious and I like the dressing. This movie looks really good and I like cooking shows, and Helen Mirren is such a good actress.
